The more time the House and Senate bills spend in the light of day, the more insidious they become. Pages 264 - 265 tell us that Indians whose income is below 300% of the FPL will receive free health care.

My wife has some Cherokee in her ancestry if you go back far enough. Suppose she can qualify?

Page 443 of the bill substitutes "legal residents" with the language "those lawfully residing in the United States."

What is that all about?

Page 369 of the bill protects workers from retribution if they complain that their employer is not providing health insurance benefits.

If you are an Indian does that mean your employer doesn't have to provide coverage?
